Of the highschool students surveyed, 65% of them reported that they preffered attending football games to attending soccer matches. Of the students surveyed, 45% were males. If gender is independent of sports preference, what is the probabiltiy that a randomly-chosen student is a male who prefers watching football to watching soccer?
i've been trying to answer this question for the past hour and i just don't get. can somebody help me a little.
Can Somebody Help Me With This Question?
If A and B are independent, P(A and B) = P(A) times P(B)
So .65 X .45 = .2925 or 29.25%
Reply:i think its 45/100*65/100
